Château Labadie, Cru Bourgeois Médoc 2017

Château Labadie is a classic Bordeaux blend; 51% of the vineyard is planted with Merlot, 42% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 3% each Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. This is aged in oak barrels, some of which is new oak, for 12-15 months. The vineyard of this family-owned estate includes clay limestone and gravel soils that provide wines with structure and finesse. The Bordeaux blend lends a robust, savoury and elegant character with hints of oak and vanilla, and dark fruits with hints of cherry and raspberry.
